That rim sucked, though. There was always pudding up under there, and it was a delicate game how much you were willing to get and risk lacerating your tongue.
Also, anyone who was good at this, DM me your info.
Pudding in cans was the best, it just tasted better. Juice in glass containers was also amazing. Plastic changes the taste and leaches microplastics into our bodies.
I’m really hoping we as a society get plastic out of our products.
Tbf Del Monte distributes all sorts of fruit/veggie related stuff, at least nowadays (In the United States). Used to go nuts for their peach cups when I was a kid lol
You unlocked a core childhood memory. It must have been sometime around the late 1980s pudding started being sold in plastic containers and I forgot they had ever been in cans.
Also, in the army it was the pouches of fruit salad or pears. If you lucked out and got that in your box, you could trade for a lot to the poor sap who got cherry pie and “lung in a bag” isn’t doing it for them.
Oh ! I misunderstood the post. I thought it was about powdered pudding being most variety in the stores. There is still canned pudding and fruit coktail in France but also some in plastic.
Years ago, after a family camping trip, we stopped at a café for Lunch on our way home. My father, my Brother and I all saw Sticky Date Pudding on the menu and decided to order it as desert.
It was the most amazing Sticky Date Pudding we had ever had, it was the right balance of moist and dry, the caramel sauce was just the right balance of sweet, salt and tart without being decadent and the date was just the right consistency, not rubbery but with just the right consistency.
We asked the waiter about it and they told the chef. The chef came out to give us the recipe and pulled out a Tinned Pudding. All he had done was cracked the tin, poured it out and put a scoop of vanilla gelato on the side.
